Today's CTR - 0% !!!???

    People, what is going on? Usually I have 500 clicks everyday, yesterday I had 2 clicks, today - 0 :eek:

    I have 2 different sites, and 0 clicks on both. Of course I have a lot of visitors.


    Probably google is cheating. Could you recommend any adsense tracker for count clicks?

    I don't changed nothing in layout, I have the same ads (I have checked it via proxies too), so even if you will see my websites, it does not change a lot.

    Maybe this is a bug if miss-jolly has the same problem.

    Obviously yours is not an isolated case. Happened to me before whereby there is almost close to a thousand page impression and not even a single click but that was almost a month ago.

    you could use statcounter to track your clicks, but then it's not spot on accurate

    it would be good if you can show us the website you're talking about. Maybe they decided to show public service ad on your site. Try contacting them.

    I would look at two things.
    1. Ad placement. Maybe your ads need to placed differently. What worked before may not work as well now, especially with repeat visitors.
    2. Ad blindness. Like number one, repeat visitors may become "blind" being served the same ad types repeatedly. Try changing from text to image ads, and/or image to text. Also changinging styles and colors periodically can help with the blindness.

    No, as I said, I have the same ads, the same advertisers like a week ago. I have checked my ads via a lot of IPs.

    I don't think so, my CTR has drop rapidly.
    If returning visitors know, where are my ads, CTR decreases slowly.



    Today still I have 0% CTR.


    Maybe they start use DART cookies and that http://adsense.blogspot.com/2009/03/driving-monetization-with-ads-that.html ? If yes, maybe I should Opt out http://www.google.com/privacy_ads.html

    google has a new system now. if you don't have a click you'll never see a CTR and eCPM.
    all who uses google adsense drop their CTR rapidly like mine. and the eCPM dropped too.

    last time if you got more than 100% CTR you can get $500 eCPM but now look.

    [​IMG]

    theres no difference between my brothers blog that earning over $3 a day.
    he gets everyday a 3k views and more than a 50 clicks. and earning more than mine. but his CTR is like 1.4% and his eCPM is like $1. and earning over $3.
